The chronicles of a young gaijin walking through Japan. Things I Still Have To Do. View my complete profile. Monday, May 4, 2009. As it gets closer and closer to my trip I've been thinking a lot about what it's going to be like traveling alone for five weeks. I've mentioned this before briefly, but I'd like to talk a little bit more about what this means to me. . Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The chronicles of a young gaijin walking through Japan. Its Been Way Too Long. Revising The Gear List. I Have a Plan - Sort Of. View my complete profile. Saturday, April 4, 2009. I Have a Plan - Sort Of. My first option (which is really a group of related options) is to either fax or call the places I haven't been able to book online through sites like Rakuten. Basic scenarios thanks to JapanesePod. The third option, which I'm considering more and more, is to simply attempt stealth camping or nojuku,.

Si vous vous baladez sur une des routes imperiales, comme la Nakasendo qui relie Kyoto et Tokyo, vous pourriez y avoir croiser le Shogun et sa suite qui voyagent vers sa residence d’été.

The walking fool: Day 1: Nihonbashi - Minami-Koshigaya
http://thewalkingfool.blogspot.com/2014/10/day-1-nihonbashi-minami-koshigaya.html
Wednesday, 15 October 2014. Day 1: Nihonbashi - Minami-Koshigaya. Distance covered: 25.5km. Weather: Cool and cloudy with long periods of drizzle. As for my backpack, I'd done absolutely no training with it on, and only minutes ago I'd shouldered it in earnest for the first time since walking the Koshu Kaido four years earlier. Already it was feeling uncomfortable, and I was beginning to worry about what shape I'd be in at the end of the day, let alone after a week of walking. At around the 10km mark, sh...

The walking fool: Day 6: Utsunomiya - Imaichi
http://thewalkingfool.blogspot.com/2014/10/day-6-utsunomiya-imaichi.html
Monday, 20 October 2014. Day 6: Utsunomiya - Imaichi. Distance covered: 27.2 km. Weather: Fine then cloudy then rain. Things got off to a bad start on day 6. As I queued for breakfast, the old man just ahead of me fumbled his tray and almost dropped it, spilling miso soup all over the floor. He was gutted, and I felt so sorry for him as he apologised to all and sundry. But worse was to come! Normal toast bread." As I feared, the pink swirls tasted of strawberry. Yuk!

Sunday, 1 April 2012. The Naked Rambler (update). I first wrote about Stephen Gough (aka the Naked Rambler) nearly five years ago. In fact, I mentioned him in my very first post. S Neil Forsyth puts it, "he's effectively been in custody for nearly six years for refusing to get dressed.". You can read the article here. Links to this post. Labels: the naked rambler.

The walking fool: Day 2: Minami-Koshigaya - Satte
http://thewalkingfool.blogspot.com/2014/10/day-2-minami-koshigaya-satte.html
Thursday, 16 October 2014. Day 2: Minami-Koshigaya - Satte. Distance covered: 23.7km. Weather: Cloudy then fine then cloudy again. Breakfast at the otherwise unprepossessing Hotel Sun Oak was a delight: a beautifully presented tray of tasty Japanese fare (including a couple of meat dishes, which, being a pescatarian, I didn't touch), augmented in my case by a couple of slices of non-traditional toast and jam and a cup of coffee. Thankfully, there. Passing Sugito, I came across this. And a glass of beer),...
